Default I am a dunst, idiot, and ya HUMIDITY is my new enemy

Well I will be a man about it and say I am pretty dumb Lol
Apparently reason that my printer has been printing sh;tty is because Maine being cold plus heater in print room = dry room = I should go to wal-mart and buy a humidifier Lol

No wonder I kept thinking heads were messed up duh
I should of listen to you Teresa Lol "I am stubborn what can I say?"

To all who are in cold states with heater running in same room as DTG.. Get a damn 40 buck humidifier

That being said, I am gonna calm down with some Hannah Montana episodes I recorded

Well I see the saga continues, Sean. I got a Flexi jet at the house I've labeled under "black ops". 3 people have seen it as of last week. I sent 8 days doing head cleanings, capping station cleanings, nozzle checks, test prints, changing color settings, you name it. Got a bad rip, so that's killing me, had to come up with a workaround.
Too many irons in the fire at once for me. Glad it's a dead month. Have a little time to get everything right before new season starts.

The auto? 30k, but it's a money maker. Got 9300 tees stacked in the warehouse, but they dont have to be done until mar, apr. Might get a few jobs for the innaugaration thingy in Jan. Other than that, I hope the phone rings or the emails flow next month.

Good to here Sean that you finally checked your humidity haha It is amazing how much humidity can have an effect on a machine printing properly. Glad you got that fixed. Did you get a hygometer to put next to your machine also ?

Everyone who has a digital garment printer, no matter which brand, should have a humidity gauge (hygrometer) mounted on the wall next to their printer. The humidity level by the printer needs to be kept between 40% to 80%. Gauges are very inexpensive, in the $10 range, and are available at any good hardware store, Home Depot, Lowes, Amazon:
